The Motor Carrier Contract serves as a foundational document for establishing professional transportation services in the Philippines, typically used when a business requires regular freight transportation services. This agreement is essential for companies operating within the Philippine transportation sector, ensuring compliance with local regulations while protecting both carriers' and shippers' interests. The contract addresses critical elements such as service terms, liability allocation, insurance requirements, and operational procedures, all within the framework of Philippine transportation laws including the Public Service Act and Land Transportation and Traffic Code. It's particularly important given the complex nature of transportation services in the Philippines' archipelagic geography and the need for clear delineation of responsibilities in cargo handling and transport.
